Create A Five-Minute List

When you don't have the energy to
start a major task or you find your energy waning, Tate suggests using a five-minute
list: A to-do list of easy, low-intensity tasks that you can do in less than five
minutes. It might be an internet search, printing out and sorting documents, or
light research. Whatever it means for you, the five-minute list can help you be
productive even during the times you have difficulty concentrating.
